Chapter 20: Exit, Alliance and Cohabitation

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Just before Illya's sword blade was about to hit Saber, Emiya Shirou arrived and opened his arms to block Saber.

Seeing this, the giant cross sword in Illya's hand paused, and the blade stopped close to Shirou Emiya's waist. The wind blade brought by the sword blade tore several cracks in Shirou Emiya's shirt.

Looking at Shirou Emiya's eyes that were closed tightly due to fear, Illya almost laughed.

'Tsk...Since you are so scared, you still dare to rush in without any thought...it's really...'

When Illya was about to scare Emiya Shirou, a strong sense of danger came from behind. The moment Illya looked back, she saw a purple meteor falling towards here quickly.

'archer?'

Illya swung the two giant cross swords, turned around, and plunged them deeply into the earth. At the same time, she protected Emiya Shirou and Saber behind the large shield composed of the giant swords.

Saber did not attack when Illya's back was turned, because she could feel that the purple meteor brought an absolutely indiscriminate range attack. Although she did not understand that Illya protected her and Shirou Emiya together.

The reason, however, she knew that Elijah’s move was not malicious.

Where is Tohsaka Rin? Illya didn't care about her. After receiving Archer's avoidance notice, Tohsaka Rin had already hid behind a big tree.

Although the above actions are relatively long, the moment Ilia assembled her sword and shield, the purple meteor fell into the cemetery.

"boom!!!"

As if a powerful bomb had been dropped into the cemetery, a violent explosion sounded. All objects in the cemetery were enveloped in the destructive explosion, and the fire swallowed everything in an instant.

After the explosion, flames burned and swept through the cemetery. The cemetery was reflected with an orange glow, the color of fire, rendering everything. The cemetery was completely destroyed.

Ilia stood up slowly behind the sword and shield, and directly used magic power to disperse the dust surrounding her body. The silver armor was still shining so brightly.

After pulling out the two giant cross swords from the ground, Illya turned to face Shirou Emiya and Saber.

Seeing this, Saber forced her body, pulled Emiya Shirou behind her, and silently confronted Illya.

"Well... thank you so much just now..."

Seeing the two Servants confronting each other again, Emiya Shirou quickly intervened to smooth things over. He didn't want to see the two sides fighting again.

"Dang bang."

At this time, a purple dagger fell to Illya's feet.

"Shirou...this is..."

Saber looked at the dagger on the ground with a solemn expression.

"Archer's weapon..."

As he spoke, Emiya Shirou frowned tightly.

"That guy definitely wanted to kill me and berserker just now..."

At the same time, the purple dagger shattered with a "?" sound, turned into countless fragments, and dissipated in the air.

"I don't even hesitate to involve Saber and Tohsaka..."

Emiya Shirou clenched his jaw and looked up at the hillside in the distance with an angry expression.

"I'm very impressed with you, Rin."

Illyasviel's voice suddenly came from above everyone.

Hearing this, Illya swung the two giant cross swords and carried them behind her back. The chains on the armor automatically stretched out and fixed the giant swords on Ilia's back. However, this image gave people a strong contrast.

It felt strange, because the two giant cross swords were more than twice as long as Ilia.

On the guard wings of the two cross swords fixed to Ilia's body, two loli appeared separately. After lightly stepping on the guard wings of the sword, they jumped slightly and sat firmly.

On top.

Sitting on the giant sword on the left is Gaia. However, she changed her clothes according to Ilia's request. Her whole body was covered by a loose monk's uniform, making it difficult for people to see her true appearance.

Sitting on the giant sword on the right is Illyasviel who just spoke to Tohsaka Rin.

From the beginning, Ilia ordered these two loli to hide in the sky, and Gaia also asked Gaia to hide their auras. The phantom of Ilyasviel who followed Ilia was also created by Gaia.

, these are very simple things to Gaia.

"Are you a pretty good archer?"

With a slight smile, Ilyasviel looked at Tohsaka Rin condescendingly.

"..."

"...Go back, berserker."

Seeing that Tohsaka Rin had no intention of talking to him, Ilyasviel curled his lips in boredom.

Hearing this, Illya glanced at Shirou Emiya, then turned around and walked away.

At this time, Ilyasviel suddenly turned around and looked at Shirou Emiya.

"Brother, you were really stupid just now. Goodbye, see you next time. And..."

Illyasviel turned his gaze to Tohsaka Rin, and his gaze became sharp.

"Rin. Will you kill me next time you meet me? Oh! Haha..."

Amid Illyasviel's clear laughter, Ilia squatted down slightly, jumped up again, and jumped into the dark night sky with two loli.

"call……"

After Illya and the others completely disappeared into the night sky, Emiya Shirou suddenly fell to the ground as if he had lost all his strength.

"That berserker is really scary... even under that kind of attack, he was still unscathed."

"Yes... Now, it will be much more difficult to win the Holy Grail War..."

Tohsaka Rin rarely agreed with Emiya Shirou's speech.

"By the way, Tohsaka. Did you just notice the person sitting on Berserker's other sword wing? Who is that? Is he also a magician who participated in the Holy Grail War?"

At this time, Shirou Emiya remembered the existence of Gaia. However, because the other party was completely covered by the monk's clothes, Shirou Emiya not only did not recognize who it was, but he also did not know his gender.

"I don't know. I haven't seen what the other person looks like at all. Even if he is someone I know, I can't tell. However, judging from the person's clothes, he may be from the church. However, this possibility is unlikely, because

If people from the church are involved in the Holy Grail War, people from the Magic Association will definitely send people to notify and drive them away."

Tohsaka Rin shook his head and thought. Because this is really strange. If the opponent is a magician participating in the Holy Grail War, then where is her servant? The opponent is already at a clear disadvantage, and there is no one at all.

There is no need to hide the Servant anymore. So, it is an outside magician? However, this is not right. As one of the three founding families of the Holy Grail system, the Einzbern family cannot allow outside magicians to intervene in the Holy Grail War.

After all, what happened in the Fourth Holy Grail War should have taught them enough lessons.

"Hey! Tohsaka. Should we leave here first?"

Emiya Shirou carefully interrupted Tohsaka Rin's thinking and suggested this to her. He had to do this because he had already heard the whistle of the fire truck approaching from far away. Let Tohsaka Rin stand there

Thinking here, if they are seen by the firefighters who rush here, they will be in big trouble. Although the church will help them handle this matter, Emiya Shirou does not have a good impression of Kotomine Kirei from that church.

, naturally I don’t want to trouble him to deal with the aftermath.

"Hmm?...Let's leave first."

Tohsaka Rin didn't blame Emiya Shirou for interrupting her thinking, because she didn't want to get into trouble.

At this point, the two of them took Saber and left the completely destroyed cemetery in a hurry.

On the separate ramp again, Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou looked at each other, who didn't want to say goodbye first.

"Na...Emiya..."

In the end, Tohsaka Rin was the first to speak.

"Let's... form an alliance!"

"What?"

Emiya Shirou, who couldn't react, asked reflexively.

"I said, let's form an alliance!"

Tohsaka Rin returned to his usual dignified attitude, folding his arms and speaking to Emiya Shirou without any doubt.

"An alliance?"

Emiya Shirou was still a little unable to react.

"Yes! Form an alliance! We alone cannot defeat that Berserker. Therefore, to deal with Einzbern, we need the power of a group. I don't believe she can face the attacks of two Servants at once!"

Tohsaka Rin definitely revealed his plan to form an alliance first and then attack Illya in a group.

"Yes, really?"

Emiya Shirou nodded blankly.

"Very good! It's settled! We will form an alliance first, and after defeating berserker, we will decide the winner between us!"

Tohsaka Rin made the alliance arrangements on his own without giving Emiya Shirou any chance to object.

"Then, I will move to your place starting from tomorrow!"

"Huh?! Wait a minute! Why do you want to move to my place? This has nothing to do with forming an alliance, right?!"

Emiya Shirou was startled. He did not expect Tohsaka Rin to suddenly make such a bold statement.

"Nonsense! Since we have formed an alliance, of course we have to stay in the same stronghold! Otherwise, do you want to be defeated by berserkers one by one?!"

"No no!"

Faced with Tohsaka Rin's questioning, Emiya Shirou quickly chose to deny it.

"That's enough! Besides, the relationship between us is just sharing a stronghold during the alliance. Do you need to react so much? Could it be that..."

Having said this, Tohsaka Rin's face darkened in vain, and then turned red again.

"You...you...are you thinking about such dirty things?! Do you think you can fall in love with me just by living with me?! You actually think I'm that kind of frivolous woman?! You have such complicated thoughts.

The bastard!!!”

"...I, I don't have it..."

At this moment, Emiya Shirou felt like crying but had no tears left.
